Small update.

I ended up buying the fog light kit on eBay. Ari and I are going to archive it for historical use.

I hope it’s complete. I need to find fog light switches. One for the front fog lights and one for the rear amber fog lights.

Some notes about the Besttop hardware and Softtop.

So, I just got off the phone and I am still confused by the process. The following is my understanding of process.

The sales operator meantioned there is two ways to achieve the effect: 1) cheap or 2) more expensive way.

A) Cheaper:
1) SuperTop Classic Squareback Soft Top (SKU: 5159901) - This includes both hardware and canvas minus the door hardware and canvas ($949.99
2) Upper Fabric (SKU: 5178001) - Need to select "Rounded Upper Rear Corner" that fits Supertop Classic 54599, 51599 - This includes the door harware and canvas ($444.99)

B) Expensive way (more screen accurate just more parts on hand:
1) Replace-A-Top for OEM Hardare (SKU: ???) - This is the complete canvas set to include upper door. You may select between original 'spice' or the 'Spice Sailcloth' in whihc is a heavier fabric. "This premium, multi-ply fabric helps reduce road sounds, absorb wind noise, and keep interior climate more consistent than dual-ply fabric" ($609.99 - Spice or $75.99 - Spice Sailcloth).
2) SOE Style replacement Bow and Frame Hardware kit (SKU: 5500401) - This includes everything minus the door hardware ($534.99).
3) Upper Fabric (SKU: 5178001) - Need to select "Square Upper Rear Corner" that fits original factory hardware or Replace-A-Top ($444.99).

I could be wrong here and there. I need to revisit this down the road and update the above script.
